Norse' Should Not
�vd fJJ! Norwegian

The word Norse is eomet\mes
made to stand for Norwegian. These
two words have different meanings
according to Webster, the Century
and other d ictionaries.
Norse is and has generally been
understood to be a generic term
compris ing the Scand inavian people
and the Yar i ous tongues or related
dialects spoken by them.
Norwegian, on the other hand, 1s
and always has been a specific term
haYing reference to Norway, its peo11lfl and its tongue.
The word Norse is not. found in
the Norwegian, Danish, Swedi.sh or
.Icelandic, past or present. lt is
found in Norman French as a. noun
and s ignifies the people and the
1ongue of the Northme11 or Scandi­
navians, with particular refei-enc� to
the Vikings of those days who rav­
aged and settled Norm andy a.nd the
shores of Great Br itain, Ireland and
the numerous islands in and a bout
the waters of those p arts, including
the Faroes, Orkneys, Shetlands and
Hebrides.
It came into use in England in
adJective form relating in a. generic
or comprehensive sense to Scandl•
navians, including the Danish tongue
and people. Norse mythology as
used in English means Sc andinavian,
not Norwegian, m�·thology and
means Scandina\' ians generally.
Norway was called Nordveg, .Nor­
vegr of Noregr in old Norwegian.
Nordveg in Anglo-Saxon, Norwege in
old German and Non·ege in French.
The "·ord Vegr. \VegP, Yeg or ,vay
runs through all these designations,
which tal,en logethe1· with first syl­
lable Nor (north) would signify a
Northerly Way.
The shore line of Norway from the
Swedish border follo&lt;-.!ng thfl main­
land as the crow flies. up to North­
cape is about 1,000 geographical
miles. Nearly all of this dista:nce ls
an inland l1igh\\'ay by w.1.ter shel­
tered fro111 the heaYy ocean by in­
numerable islands facing the North
sea as a barrier against angry winds
and w aves.

To this day tho exp1·el!IB!ons Sjovel
(Norwegian), Sovej (Danish), Sjo­
vag (Swedish), whi ch mean Seaway
in English. are Yery commonly used
in cases where a traYeler l1as 1hc
choice of r&lt;'aching some desLination
by land or water.
Norway, being a long, narrow
rocky country, with full-length com­
muni cation only by its natural inland
waterway, became known to the
world during the early Viking a.gt&gt;,
a:;; Norvegr, Nordveg, Nordwege, and
the like, all of whlch meant the
northway or Norway in present Eng­
lish.
In Norman French and French it
became Norvege and Its adjective
Norvegien, which In English became
Norwegian.
An attempt is now being made to
take the Vei, Vag, Veg or Way out
of the words Norwegian and Nor­
vegien, and make it Norse, which is
neither an abbreviation nor a substi­
tute, but a misnomer.
The centennial this summer
commemorates the beginning or
immigration frorn Norway into the
United States. It is a Norwegian­
American nationalistic eeleb.alion,
not a racial gathering of the Norse
people such as tool&lt; place in June,
1909, during 1.he thousand years• cel­
ebration (Le llfillenairr) in nouen,
!&lt;'ranee, to conunemora1e the foun­
da1ion of the duchy of Normandy in
909 by the Vikings.
'!'hat C\'!"llt in France was truly
Norse or Nordisl( (Norwegian, Dan­
ish, Swedish). The coming centen­
nial is Norwegian-not S1'edish, nor
Danish and not at all Norse, except
in a generic or comprehensive sense.

lis with the Centennial. He says :
"There appears, for no reason at
all to be some question as to where
th� Norse-American Centennial is to
be held, whether in St. Paul or in1
Minneapolis. Minneapolis is grandly
claiming proprietorship, just as it
seeks to cultiv.at_e the reputation o f
possessing the Ford plant, but i n
neither case is there foundation for
the boasts o f St. Paul's twin.
"The latest a nnouncement, which
appears i na Chicago paper, is to the
effect that the celebration "will be
held at the Minneapolis State Fair
Grounds." If y, ou will get out your
m.ap
of Minneapolis you will find
Minnesota somewhere on the north
side.
"T.,et us get this thing straight, once
-arm'for· 'Ml, ·iJ.ow and forevermore !
"The Norse-American Centennial is
to be held in Ramsey county, of which
St. Paul is the county seat, on the
gr.ounds or the Minnesota State Fair,
the main entrance to which is to be
found on Snelling avenue, one of
St. Paul's important thoroug,hf.ares.
"T·he Ford plant is on the east sid·e
of the Mississippi river inside the city
limits of St. Paul, and there it will re­
main unless some steps are taken to
move the river. On the face this
doesn't seem practical, but then the
world has learned to expect most any­
thing from Minneapolis. You would
be surprised at the impractic.al things
Minneapolis can do on paper.
"To make sure that we get it on
time, we want to announce once more
that the Kiwanis international con­
vention is to be held in St. Paul, not
Minneapolis, in June.
"We want also to announce th.at the
state capitol building is in St. Paul.
Also it might be well to bear in
mind that this is the home of Frank
B. Kellogg, Secretary of State, Pierce
Butler, Associate Justice of the Unit­
ed States Supreme cour1, the junior
baseball champions of the world and

We received a copy of the St.

a Chronicle subscriber at St. Paul
an&lt;t at the top of the front page
of the, pa per w1as pasted our ar­
ticle in which ws said that J. A.

will attend the convention in Min­

1.J•a per, th t ti a @Q�ntion will n.ot
oei held in Mi nneapo"''Us but in St.
Paul. On the .front pag,e o f the
Daily News we find among other
chings that the Minneapolis pa­
pers have been ·guilty of broad­
casting the assertion that the con­
vention will be in M inneapolis.
The Daily News says : "Turning

the Pnesiuent's speech which will be de­

"Address .nf President &lt;:;oo!ldge Bef?re
the Norwegian Centennial Celebration

A few clays a�ter the speeches were
sent out Minnesota newspaper men
called the attention of the White House
to the error and pointed out -the trou_ble
it might oeeasion bety,een the two cities.
Later speechE,s were corre�ted to i:;rad
"At State Fair Grounds, Mmnesota.
The dvalry ,, so great _between_ the
two cities that no Presiclent1al c. ·1-1cla.te
has ever visited one c:ty without gomg

accomplished they compromise by �-P•
pearing at the State fai� gi,o_unds,

a business men' s organization, "St.
Paul was awarded it&amp; j ust d e.serts for

Father Hennepin blessed the Falls of
St. Anthony, Minneapolis found It
difficult to put a Minneapolls date line
on a St. Paul nciws event."

s t a t e s that the Kiwanis Inter­

St. Paul, June 22 to 25, and he warns
that "should your attention be direct­

cle_nt \Vilson had to settle more than one quarrel among his own
friends by purely arbitrary action. President Coolidge has
apparently avoided that pitfall by his prompt action now.
No sooner had the fires abroad been put out, however than
another incipient blaze had to be quenched at home. One of
the outstanding editorial critics of the American spokesmen
abroad was Col. George Harvey, who has just retired this
week as editor of the Washington Post.
Mr. Harvey lambasted his fellow-Americans abroad for their
alleged interference with the foreign and debt policies of the
government. The next clay, of his own free will and volition,
he suggeste� that a debt parley between France, Great Britain
a�d the Umted . States shonl� take place in London, thereby
directly supportmg a suggest10n made in London and Paris
three years ago that there be a pooling of the allied debts
instead of individual settlements between the United States
and each one of the debtor powers.

The Irreconcilables
Col. � arvey was quite close to the Harding administration,
and retired as Ambassador to Great Britain with the o-rateful
ac�nowledgment of President Coolidge. Contrary to 1opular
belief, however, he has never been the editorial spokesman of
the Administration at all. It has freq1o1ently been necessary for
the Adm inistration to say so from time to time, and when it did
so in this instance, it disarmed Col. Harvey who is in fact
still an irreconcilable on European questions, ' and therefore a
leader of the old irreconcilables in this country. 1-I is views
are his own, but he walks on the same street with Borah and
H iram Johnson and George Moses, and the other "last ditch­
ers" on the Versailles Treaty and its ramifications.
This is not to say, however, that the President has definitely
or permanently squelched opposition to his foreign policy.
On the contrary, Senator Borah, Col. Harvey, Senator Johnson
and Senator Moses are all of£ the reservation on the 'vVorld
Court issue and the debt question, and propose to stay there.
vVhen these questions come up for consideration in Congress
next winter, they will demonstrate their opposition amply and
frequently. What the President has accomplished; however,
is to reduce materially the numbers of those who will so
oppose him.
A Year Ago
A year ago at the Cleveland convention, the President gave
ample evidence of a new deal not only in the government but
within the Republican Party. A good deal was said at the
time about the relegation of the Old Guard to the rear, but
many people seem to have forgotten about it. Since that time
the_ ��esident has gone steadily ahead eliminating politics and
politicians from the personnel of the government and puttino­
in the key positions men whom he can trust to carry 01.rt
Coolidge policies.
Of course, the outstanding illustration of his determination
to get loyalty in the executive departments lies in the appoint­
ment of John Sargent as Attorney General, and of Frank B.
Kellogg, as Secretary of State. It has been illustrated by his
appointments on the various government commissions of men
who would bring those commissions to active co-operation with
the balance of the government according to the Coolidge plan.
] f anybody has any doubt of the determination of the Presi­
dent to get things done his way, he has only to run over the
list of appointments of under secretaries and solicitors and
bureau chiefs to convince himself that this is so.
For instance, quietly and without any favorable publicity,
transfers have been made of practically all of the members of
the alleged "ring" in the Department of Agriculture, which
was said to dominate that department to the exclusion of the
Secretary of Agriculture. There have been promotions to high
places in civilian life for most of the men who disagreed with
the Coolidge policies, but the fact remains that they have left
the government or are about to do so, and there is comparative
(Con tinned on Page 27)

quiet along the Potomac so far as that department is concerned.
Another example of the establishment of discipline within
the gover1: ment itself lies ! n the work _ � f the budget bureau.
Bureau chiefs w�o . rather hke the publicity they could get out
of large appr?pnat10r�s which enabled them to do things which
bro�gh � public attent1011 upon them, ' have at last come to the
reahzat1011_ that Calvin Coolidge is permanently committed to

th:3-t_ he . is detennined to keep the Federal government ' from
m1x111g 111 where the states apparently fear to tread but where
the Pr�sident �hinks th �y ought to tread, neverthel�ss.
_ By his_ tenacious backrng of General Lord, the budget officer,
,..be President has not only brought the budget estimates down
to a reasonable basis : but ._ � government departments have
apparently_ accepted his last on, t· for a further cut in govern­
mental esti i:n ates of $300,000,000, �') be spread over a period
of years, with an alm&lt;;&gt;st �omplete abstPce of objection.
Of course, as exam111a!10n_of ways andmean-&amp; by which this
cut can be mad � goes on, 1t will be found that some departments
a1:d bureaus_ will _be unable to make the cuts expected of them
without an impairment of their necessary efficiency. On the
contrary, other departments and bt:•reaus will be found which
can cut even more.
. The � r�sident e:X:pects that this new loyalty to the economy
'. ss_ue withm the government will reach the goal he has set fo·r
1t 111 the matter of estimates this year.
. Duri �g these quiet �ummer months, therefore, while Wash­
mgton is produc1 �g httle real news, progress is being made
toward ai:n�lgam_at111g, cementing, and building up a new Cool­
idge adm1r� 1st �at10n, t\1e keynote of which is loyalty to its chief
and the pnnc1ples which he believes in.
A �ew weeks ago the rresident told the country that it could
take . its eyes of£ \/1/ashmgton while Congress was away for
nothmg would happen here to disturb business or occasio� un­
usual discussion of _any kin�. J'h�t promise has been kept
thus far, and there 1s every 111d1cat1011 when Cono-ress meets
next _December i � will � nd a thoroughly organiztd Coolidge
machrne on the J ob which knows what it wants and knows
�vha� it is doing. If there is going to be any excitement then,
it will be the result of a clash in policies between the executive
departments and Congress._

EXPORTING 1,100 AUTOS DAILY

The total value of the April export trade in automotive
products from the United States reached $33 858 742 as com­
pared with $32,645,81 7 for March, $19,289,224 for February
and $19? 76,34? _f&lt;;&gt; r January, according to Percy Owen, Chief,
Automotive D1v1s1011, Department of Commerce. This repre­
sents a four-months' total of $105,570, 132, which approaches
aln�ost one-half the to�al 1924 automotive exports from the
Umted States. By addmg Canadian exports of passenger cars,
trucks and �a �ts to the totals of the United States for April
and March, 1t 1s found that the total American automotive ex­
port tr�de amounted to $36,622,576 and $36,501 , 1 76 respective­
ly, durmg these months·. Exports of United States passenger •
cars and trucks for April numbered 28 833.
April production of 391 ,301 passenge� cars and 47 664 trucks
topped the previous high figure-that for May, 1923-by 32,646 pa �senger c_a rs and 1 ,860 trucks, or 34,506 units for both
categories. � nc1dental �y, it was the second time in the history
of the Amencan (U1:1ted States and Canada) automobile in­
du �try that a production figure of 400,000 has been exceeded.
This unparalleled_ output, however, was almost matched from
a record st�nd pomt by a volume of passenger car and truck
exports wh1 �h 11:st fell short of the record total of the previous
month. This failure to �xceed March exports can be traced to
lower passenger car shipments from Canada, which fell off
from the previous i:nonth's !1igh by almost 27 per cent, a de­
crease of 1 ,735 umts. This decrease was one-half nullified
however by increased shipments of both passenger cars and
trucks from the United States and of trucks from Canada.

nial.
For the first tirnc in Utt anaatS oi
the Norwegian Lutheran church of
America, n ow in session in the St.
Paul Auditorium, the question of
modernism arose ·Friday when al­
leged modernist theories on the part
of Rev. J os.eph Tetlie, former mis­
sionary to China, were made the sub­
j ect of a committee report.
Rev. Mr. Tetlie; now a student in
Chicago, when· confronted with the re­
quest of the church committee, made
a complete and orthadox confession
of the fundamental Lutheran faith
and denied that he had ever rejected
"the divinity of Christ, the atonement,
resurrection · ( even the bodily -resur­
rection,) the supernatural element in
the Bible, nor salv:.ition by faith. Nor
have I ever definitely rejected the doc�
trine of the virgin birth, though I did
take up a tentative posit.1011 on this
point, which further study and reflec-

i:ne-----------------------------------�------------

�tion have led me to modify."
Immediately following the investi­
g-ation by the church committee Rev.
Mr. Tet!ie resigned from the j urisdic­
tion of the board of foreign missions,
Jut continues as a minister under the
urisdiction of the Norwegian Luther­
m Church of America .
The ques.tion as to the modernity of
Rev. Mr . Tetlie's religious views came
1bout as a result of a series of com••
nunications sent by him to the board
Jf foreign mission while he was on
iuty in the Honan district in China as
1 missionary.
In his explanation attached to the
:onfession of faith he said :
"Certainlv it wa� not my intention
to launch �n attack on the Lutheran
confessio ns. What J had in mind was
the more or less officially expresse d
attitude of our church on certain
q uestions of wide-spread interest. I
was mainly concerne d with the often
recurring problem of the relation of
advancin g knowledge and culture to
theological tradition , and what meth­
od an d approach to use in cases
where the two seem to clash. In urg­
ing the validity and ad�isibility of pro­
ceedfog by investigation of fact, wher•
ever facts are open to examination and
verificatio n, I was basing myself on
pas t experience, and on the convic­
tion that the religion of Jesus Christ
1
can never suffer loss from increase
of knowledge in any and every field."
When the question was brought be­
fore the church body Friday it was
decided to accept the confession of
faith and the explanatio n made by
Rev. M r. Tetlie if he would add the
words "and repudiate'' in order that
his statement- might read : "I am wilt­
ing to withdraw and repudiate what­
ever there may be in the above men­
tioned document to the Board of For­
eign Missions which is really contrary
to the confession s of the Lutheran
church. "
The report of the committee and
the confession;il statement together
with the explanator y statement by
Re v. Mr. TctHe reads :
"A colloqu:µm was held with Rev.
Joseph Tetlie at the Deaconess Home
in Chicago, February 20, 1925.
"The conference was conducted in
a prayerful and brotherly spirit. Bro­
ther Tetlie submitted for considera­
tion the following confessional state•
ment :
" 'I believe in the inspiration of the
Bible, and in its unique and abiding
value ; I believe that in the scriptures
we have the revelation of God, grow­
ing and developing and culminating in
Jesus Christ, that this revelation as
summed up in Jesus Christ is our in­
fatlible source of doctrine, guide in
living, and y;ay of salvation.

I

r " 'I believe in the divinity of Christ,
I th at He is true God from eternity ;
, that in Christ, conceived by the Holy
Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary,
the divine and hum an became united
in one persnn ; th at Christ performed
miracles ; that God was in Christ
reconciling the world to himself ; that
Christ bore our sins in His body upon
the tree, that we having died unto
sin might live unto righteousness ;
that He rose on the third day ; t hat
He is at the right hand of the Father,
from which He shall come to j udge
the quick and the dead.
" 'I believe that by faith in Christ
we become the children of God, and
receive j ustification and forgiveness of
sins ; that this saving faith is awak­
ened and sustained in us by the Holy
Spirit through the Word and sacra­
ments.'
To the above confessional stateJJ?.ent,
signed by Rev. Joseph Tetlie, th,e com­
mittee begs to add the following. quo­
tation from brother Tetlie's exp}Ea.na­
tory note, added below, and e�b�died
as a part of this report :
" 'I am willing to withdraw what­
ever there may be in the above-men­
tioned communication to the Boatd of
Foreign Missions which is really con­
trary to the confessions of the Luth­
eran church."
Resignation of Right Reverand H. G.
Stu � as president of the church,
was reluctantly accepted on account
1
of the president's advanced age, but
he was announced as a s alaried pres­
I ident emeritus. Rev. J . A. Aasgaard,
president of Concordia college, Moorhead, was unanimously elected presi­
dent for four years to succeed Dr.
Stub.
Rev. Thaddeus Gullixon, Minot, N.
D., was selected as vice-president to
succeed Mr. Aasgaard. Rev. J. Nord­
by, La Crosse, Wis . , was reelected
president of the Eastern district and
Rev. A. M. Skindlov, Spokane, was
elected president of the Rocky Moun­
tain district.
Minneapolis and San Francisco botlt
extended invitations for the church
convention for 1926, action on which
was expected to be taken Saturday.
Rev. Jacob Tanner, Minneapolis,
was elected to the faculty of the Lu­
ther seminary in St. Anthony Park.
The election of the Dr. Aasgaard to
the presidency of thechurch, will mean
that he will move to Minneapolis some
time before August 1st. For the past 15
years f1e has been president of Con­
cordia College at Mo�rhead, Minn.

ST .I NDUSTRIAL
EXPOSITION WILL TELL
STORY OF PROGRESS
Overland Building Will House Exhibits and Demonstrations Having Peculiar
Interest to Retail Merchants-Event Combines With June House
Sales and Norse Centennial to Make Trip to Twin Cities One
of Most Important Thir Js a Merchant Can Do.
The stirring story of the industrial prog­
ress of the Northwest will be told in strik­
ing fashion by a gigantic revelation of what
is being produced in its factories and mills
during the early part of this coming month.
During the week commencing June 8, at
the large Overland Building on University
Avenue, St. Paul, almost across the way
from the home of the Northwest Comm er­
cial Bulletin, th e Northwest Industrial Ex­
position will be staged.
It will add another to the series of rea­
sons why retailers from all sections tribu­
tary to the Twin Cities sho�1ld plan to come
to these two towns during the opening days
of the coming month, the other important
factors in the series being the June House
Sales and the Norse Centennial.
T h re e Eve nts
el ling I nterest
All three events will hold much of strik­
ing interest to merchants-the House Sales
because of the opportunity thus afforded to
obtain seasonal merchandise at less-than­
usual prices ; the Norse Centennial because
of its commemoration of the landing, one
hundred years ago, of the first of those who
were, in the 1)€rsons of their descendants, to
play so important a role in the upbuilding
of the country and especially of this North­
west of ours, and the Industrial Exposition,
because of the object lesson it will be in the
tremendous importance of this section in a
manufacturing and industrial way at pres­
ent, as well as because of the education it
will afford as to the processes by which
many of the products sold in retail stores
are fashioned from the raw materials.
President Cool idge to be H ere

many instances, all over the civilized
world. It is said that so widespread is the
sale of merchandise produced in factories of
the Northwest that it bears resemblance to
the flag of Great Britain in that the sun
never sets on them. To Asia, Africa, South
Amerca, Europe, Japan, the British Isles
and many of the islands of the sea these
goods go.
In some products the Northwest leads the
world in productions ; in others it ranks
well up among the leaders. Hundreds of
exhibits will depict industrial life and de­
velopment, many of them with workmen
turning out the finished product.
A Truly Northwest Show
This is not a St. Paul and Minneapolis ex­
hibition and exposition but, on the contrary,
is just what its name indicates, viz., North­
west. All parts of the Ninth Federal Re­
serve District will be represented. From
the Dakotas, Montana, western Wisconsin,
upper Michigan and many different cities in
Minnesota displays will be sent. The Dun­
woody Industrial Institute of Minneapolis
will temporarily transfer its many activities
to the Overland Building. This famous in­
stitution accordingly will include in its ex­
hibit mechanics, baking, building construc­
tion, highway engineering, electrical en­
ginering, machine shop work, printing, sheet
metal manufacture, welding and paint man­
ufacture.

Incident to the events will be such stellar
features as the visit of President Coolidge ;
the opportunity to view the dirigible bal­
loon, the Los Angeles, with which so large
a chapter in.. the history of air navigation
has been written since it essayed its suc­
cessful trans-Atlantic flight a few months
ago ; and the visit to the Northwest of the
United States Marine Band, the first trip of
this famous organization west of Pittsburgh
in many years.
Any one of these would in itself, be mag­
net enough to induce a visit to the Twin
Cities. Together, they form a combination
which should prove irresistible. Advance in­
dications point to crowds such as the Twin

S p l e n d i d Chance to Learn

By spending a few hours wandering about
the Overland Building, inspecting and watch­
ing the varied and various displays and
demonstrations, a merchant can add meas1 ·ably to his fund of nowledge as to how
e s are produced, as
U e wares which h

well as gaining a larger and more complete
insight into the position of tremendous im­
portance which this section in which he re­
sides and has his business occupies in an
industrial and manufacturing way.
"The Industrial Exposition will show
thousands of visitors just what is madt'
right here in our own Northwest," Georg�
F. Dickson, president, says. "Very few per­
sons know what is made in their own home
towns. This exposition will be educational
as well a:s mteresting and will possess a
vast number of entertaining features.' '

�Several high, presSIUre chemical tanks,
moun ted on ligh!.._!,rucks, today were stationed at the field to prevent any possi­
bility of fire. Captain C. W. Steele,
commander of the Los Angeles, a Min­
•ncapblls man , ma(le a special request
for this apparatus to protect the valuable air cruiser.
Special telephone and telegraph lines
were strung t oday, and are readr for
final testing tomorrow. From the time
the airship leaves Lakehurst, N. J .. un­
til its return, it will be in direct com­
munication with the radio station at the
University ot Minnesota. When it starts
to land early Monday morning, it wlll
lssue instructions by wireles� telegraphy
to the University of Minnesota, and radio
listeners there then will communicate
instructions by special telephone wire
to the field.
Three hundred men will be required
to pull the airship down and a special
officer has been sent from tl:\e hangar
at ,Lakehurst to drill men at Fort
Snelling in the work of landing the ai1·­
ship.
1 The Los Angeles will arrive between
5 and 7 a.m., Monday morning, accord1 Ing to latest advices. It will take three
hours to refuel and take food on board.
There wilt be parking space inside the
Wold-Chamberlain field for 5 ,500 cars.
One $2 ticket will admit an adult to the
field for the three days of the flying
exhibition. Single aamisson will be $1
and there will be a charge of 50 cents
for minors.
The Wold-Chamberlain field, where the
air meet will be cond1,1cted, is . one-quar­
ter ot a mile this side of Fort Snelling.
Persons wishing to get to the field may
l' o out Cedar avenue to Sixty-third
; ,;treet and down Sixty-third street to
' t he field. Or out Fort Snelling road to
I J l'ort Snelling and then back one-quarter
·, )t a mile on a side road, toward Minne­
, ipolls. The Fort Snelling carllne is t
1earest. There will be bus servi&lt;,()
he end o.t: the line to ,,..._ "�"'

Anyway, the Los Angeles is coming.
Of that we are assured by the officials
at ,Yashington . . 'l'he giant dirigible
will be, as it were, the middle ring of
a three-ring fl�·ing circus that is to
open Saturday and continue for three
claJ'S at the Wolcl-Chamberlain field.
There will be fi,e Martin Bombers, a
fleet of the latef\t type of United States
fighting planes and a unit of navy aces
to entertain the crowds for two days
before the Los Angeles tums its nose
northward. Great rivalry between the
army and na,y fliers has sprouted
since the deal was made, with the re­
sult that we are looking forward to
many thrills.
'Frinstance-there will be what the
army men call the ·'apron string forma­
tion," in which three planes, each cap­
' able of tra,eling 200 miles • an hour,
\ will be tied together with ordinary
,:tring that a chiltl coultl break. Thus
1
conuected they will ascend and perform
a variety of flip-flops while going at top
speed and then return to earth with the
string as good as new. Try that in
your hay-mow.
Proceeds from the meet will be used
to purchase the Wold-Chambedain field
which Twin City business men have
been maintaining for several years on
a lease. Then, when Uncle Sam starts
an air mail service, there will be a
I place for him to lea,e our correspon
dence-not to mention our bills.
Monday, the 8th day of June, is going
to be a wild affair in St. Paul. First
of all it will be the big day of the Nor­
se-American centennial program, be­

State Frank B. Kellogg, H. Bryn, Min­

They do sa,y there are going to be
some distinguished human beings in
St. Paul during the Norse-American
Centennial.
However, what the local show dogs
are worrying about more js an inva­
sion of outside canjne immortals for
the fifth American Kennel club dog
show, to be put on by the Twin City
Kennel club at the Btate Fair grounds
June 6, 7 and 8. w h i l e the centenni a-l
is being held in the same big en­
closure.

Yankibourne Chinee is one of the
potentates from afar I.hat is here to
high-tone the dog show off!cials and
sniff at the local dog champions. Mrs.
A. F. Flankers bought him 10 days or
so ago in New York and tried him 011
t h e dogs at Duluth at last week's
show there, and he knocked them for
a couple of silver cups. He is a Pek­
ingese.
Another royal newcomer, also from
New York, that will spread conster­
nation at the coming show, is a Bos­
ton terrier recently_ acquired by Mrs. i
A. T. Heine of Minneapolis. He is
said to have refused to leave dear old
Fifth avenue for less than a "grand."
500 Dogs E n tered.
More than $ 1 ,000 al rea&lt;ly has been­
ta,kell in ill entry fees for t h e show,
according to Dr. G. 0. Orr, treasurer
• of the Twin City Kennel club. It is
expected to be the largest dog show
ever put on in the Northwest, with
more than 500 dog·s entered, from as
far away as both coasts a n d as far
south as Texas. Jn the shepherd class
alone-police dogs-there will . be a,t
least 150 entries. The breed that will
come nearest to competing with the
police dogs in ,1umbers will be the
Boston terriers. Cash a,W al'ds will to­
tal about $1,000, and 1 50 silver cups
will be given as prizes. '.rhe ;show
will be in three buildings on the
Como avenue side of the Fair

'
Lincleke, Warner &amp; Sons, St. Paul, are
putting forth special efforts to make the
usual June house sale a more than usual
event this season. "We realize that the
merchant is demanding lower priced mer­
chandise and this is the time of year when
we can meet that demand without sacri­
ficing quality," Mr. A. W. Lincleke said.
"Our buyers are in New York for the ex­
pre,ss purpose of securing jobs and low­
priced lots of attractive goods, which, to•
gether with clearance bargains from our
own stocks, will give the retailer what he
wants to stimulate his summer business,
-�•namely good seasonable merchandise at low
•• prices." •
M c D O N A L D B ROS. &amp; CO.

That "House sales in the Twin City
market set this season for June 6 to 13,
sho�d be bigger and better ffianever for
several reasons," is the opinion expressed
by Terry Mccosker, salesmanager of Mc­
Donald Bros. &amp; Co . He proceeded to out­
line those several reasons for the enlighten­
ment of a Commercial Bulletin representa­
tive substantially as follows:
"Dry goods jobbers are buying more new
and seasonable merchandise than ever be­
fore for the event in addition to the regular
......:_earance of stocks and the Norse-American
Centennial wil.-l_ bring more potential buyers
into the market. The Friendship tour of
the Civic �ommerce ts sEtion comes

ll.t just the right time to arouse the interest
of merchants in the event all along i·ts
route.
"The two-way trip at the cost of one fare
:tnd one-third, over all roads leading to and
from the Twin Cities, is a favorable feature
that the June House sales are enjoying for
the first time without any strings to the
offer. There is no reel tape to unwind
since the reduced railroad rate is open to
all without the usual coup� and validation
clause.
G. S O M M E R S &amp; CO.

The interior "clean up and paint up" cam­
paign just completed by G. Sommers &amp; Co.
has made that wholesale house a more than
ever attractive place in which to shop for
dry goods and general merchandise. The
fi1 st floor has been rearranged and merchan­
dise displays brought to the front, thereby
facilitating service to the customer.
An interesting new service feature is the
Exhibition store on the third floor, in charge
of H. A. Moore, where the customer intend­
ing to start a new store may get an idea
of the fixtures needed, their arrangement,
etc. -in-the show windows of the exhibl·
tion store are model displays which demon­
strate the most effective arrangement of
merchandise. The store is without stocks
except in the show windows.
"Every line carried in the store will par­
ticipate in the sale, with special bargains
selected in each department to interest vis­
itors," Mr. Benjamin Sommers declared.
Moreover, "the complete line of toys, im­
ported and domestic, usually shown in .July,
will be opened this season for the June
House Sale. The complete line of school
supplies also will be opel).ed at that time."

Letters and essays reveal the loyalty of Norwegian Americans to their cultural heritage and the rivalry among area groups of Norwegians in America. The celebration was initiated by the bygdelags. The chief officials were Gisle Bothne, S. H. Holstad, J. A. Holvik, Elisa P. Farseth, and Mrs. Wm. O. Storlie. Correspondents include Juul Dieserud, Knut Gjerset, Hanna Astrup Larsen, and O. M.
